Greetings,

Background:

I have not (yet) studied or written a linux or rtdm device driver.  I
am, however, using one whose source with which I am unfamiliar.  My
particular scenario involves a communications device driver written to
by many asynchronous tasks with varying priorities.  I am concerned
that I may need to provide protections in front of the rt_dev_ioctl
call to ensure coherency.


Question:

Does a call to rt_dev_ioctl implicitly handle serialization or is it
each driver's  (or application's) responsibility to take care of
serialization/reentrancy issues?


Thanks in advance,
Paul
